Maritime Compliance & Regulatory Advisor | ISM, ISPS & MLC I help ship and yacht operators navigate maritime regulatory requirements, identify compliance gaps, and turn complex obligations into clear, practical actions. My experience combines hands-on maritime operations with shore-based compliance and management, giving me a practical understanding of how regulatory requirements translate into real operational controls. My areas of work include: - Maritime Compliance Management - ISM, ISPS & MLC compliance - Regulatory research and analysis - Compliance gap assessments & health checks - Audit & inspection readiness - SMS and compliance documentation review - Corrective actions and compliance tracking - Vessel-specific regulatory requirements - Due diligence and maritime risk analysis - Maritime security and operational compliance - Regulatory monitoring and implementation I am particularly interested in assignments where the challenge is not simply understanding a regulation, but figuring out what it means operationally and how to implement it effectively. My approach is analytical, practical and detail-oriented: identify the requirement → assess the current position → identify the gap → establish the action → create control. I am also developing expertise across maritime intelligence, cybersecurity, sanctions and broader maritime risk, with the long-term objective of providing strategic regulatory and risk advisory services to maritime businesses internationally. If you need a maritime compliance specialist who can research the requirement, understand the operational context and turn it into something actionable, I can help.
